Edit: And then 3/4 correct in the bonus round. The one I got wrong was the one I was surest I had right
It's scary though... how good it is these days.

I only managed 6/10 so well done. It is indeed scary!

9 out of 10 here as well, some of the CG is VERY good though. There was only one which I looked at and thought "no, that is clearly CG".
I think it would be easier with higher res images.

8 out of 10
I got the diamonds and the corkscrew wrong. Hey ho!
Part of the trick of good CG and photo manipulation is to listen to your subconscious... after editing take a small break and come back to the image fresh. It's little things like shadows, reflections, colour, and variations in sharpness that are not easy to see when you scrutinise an image, but are shouted out by your subconscious
Nice little test though!

8 out of 10 for me!
The BMW threw me, and I thought the peppers were CG.
Amazing quality

interesting that we all seem to have got different ones wrong, my mistake was the closeup of the back end of a car, though the Corkscrew very nearly got me.

10 out of ten, spotted things that show each is what it is.
Spoilers below, copy and paste or change font size, quote me or something to read it (don't repost it as someone may want to read the thread before trying). I've strung it all together so you can't tell how many of each there are, points vary with each so there could be less of one than the other
Fakes:
The BMW has a flat background and the tiles in the foreground look like they have parallax applied. The Mug shows the spoon reflected on it is a less than real way, it is a bit too perfect. The 'froth' on the top is also a flat texture. The diamonds have flat colouration and the refraction is not correct. Whisks shadows are all wrong and the textures are bland. Monkeys, I won't even comment on how anyone could possibly confuse hat for a photo
Real:
Corkscrew has a lovely flash shadow, deep texture. Nut and Bolt have great DoF and shadow. The rover, just look at the numberplate and the decorative bit above, the reflections are 'burnt' naturally. Glass thingamajig, well nice deep texture and one which could easily fool. Peppers, colour looks wrong and flat but the detail and texture on the stalks shows they are real. DoF is also helps a bit.
Bonus 4 out of 4 correct
Fake:
The marbles and steel tube reflections look wrong. The guy in armour looks very fake indeed, hair, skin, forehead, eyes, list goes on...
Real:
Wooden lizard, imperfection on the foot and nice studio lighting, look at the shadows. Glass of water, movement, texture, bubbles, detail, lighting.

Scary! Shall we all give up photography now?
The Beemer was the most obvious fake - you'd never get away with parking it outside Downing Street for a photoshoot!!

I got burned on a couple of those.
is a real photo real if the person has fake: hair, limbs, furs, or....etc.?)
you can't trust anything these days.....hard to tell if anything is real or fake.
(you don't need photos to play "Real or Fake" just take a stroll down the beach....).

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

The beamer also nearly got me, but the background gave it away. Bokeh felt "wrong".
